Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 lb ground beef (85% lean or higher)
  • 8 oz mushrooms, sliced (button or cremini mushrooms)
  • 2 tbsp olive oil or avocado oil
  • 1 small onion, diced
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1/4 cup heavy cream
  • 1/2 cup beef broth (low-sodium recommended)
  • 1/2 tsp salt (or to taste)
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper
  • 1/2 tsp smoked paprika (optional)
  • 1/4 tsp dried thyme or Italian seasoning
  • 1 cup fresh spinach (optional)
  • 1/2 cup shredded cheese (optional, mozzarella or cheddar)

Instructions

  • Heat oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the ground beef, breaking it up as it browns.
  • Add onion and garlic when the beef is halfway browned, stirring until the onion is soft.
  • Add mushrooms to the skillet and cook for 5-7 minutes until they release their liquid and start to brown.
  • Pour in beef broth and heavy cream, stirring to combine. Add smoked paprika, thyme, salt, and pepper. Let the mixture simmer for 5 minutes until it starts to thicken.
  • Add spinach (if using) and stir until it wilts.
  • Sprinkle with cheese (if desired) and cover for 2 minutes until cheese melts.
  • Serve hot and enjoy!

Notes

  • For a dairy-free option, replace heavy cream with coconut cream.
  • For added flavor, try a mix of mushroom types like button and shiitake.
  • Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days.
